  • The Effect of Passive Leg Raising Towards Hemodynamics on Patient with Hypovolemic Shock at the Emergency Ward of Dustira Cimahi Hospital
    International Seminar on Global Health (ISGH) 2017 Stikes Jenderal Achmad Yani Cimahi The Effect of Passive Leg Raising towards Hemodynamics on Patient with Hypovolemic Shock at the Emergency Ward of Dustira Cimahi Hospital Evangeline Hutabarat Nursing Science Dept., Stikes Jenderal Achmad Yani Cimahi Email: [email protected] Abstract One of the conditions needing immediate response in the emergency ward is hypovolemic shock. The patient in shock requires close monitoring for clinical signs and hemodynamic status and intravascular status. It is due to circulatory assistance and medication provision on the patient is given based on the accuracy of the intravascular volume status of the patient. Fluid responsiveness can be considered as basis for considering administering fluid only or inotropic and vasopressor medication for the patient to maintain her circulatory homeostatic. Passive Leg Raising (PLR) may be a reversible method to evaluate fluid responsiveness. The study aims at evaluating the effect of PLR on hemodynamic. It employs the quasi-experimental design with the within subject repeated measurement design approach. 48 respondents took part as samples, with the consecutive sampling method implemented. The samples were then categorized into responsive and non-responsive groups based on the increase of pulse pressure amounting to or beyond 9% during PLR implementation. The data was tested using the dependent and independent t test to provide analysis for uni-variate and bivariate data. The results indicated that 34 respondents belonged to the responsive group while 14 respondents were categorized as non-responsive. There was a significant relationship between PLR and hemodynamic parameters of systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, and pulse pressure (p>0.05).

  • Passive Leg Raise Testing Effectively Reduces Fluid Administration In
    Rameau et al. Ann. Intensive Care (2017) 7:2 DOI 10.1186/s13613-016-0225-6 RESEARCH Open Access Passive leg raise testing effectively reduces fluid administration in septic shock after correction of non‑compliance to test results Arjanne Rameau, Eldert de With and Evert Christiaan Boerma* Abstract Background: Fluid resuscitation is considered a cornerstone of shock treatment, but recent data have underlined the potential hazards of fluid overload. The passive leg raise (PLR) test has been introduced as one of many strategies to predict ‘fluid responsiveness.’ The use of PLR testing is applicable to a wide range of clinical situations and has the potential to reduce fluid administration, since PLR testing is based upon (reversible) autotransfusion. Despite these theoretical advantages, data on the net effect on fluid balance as a result of PLR testing remain scarce. Methods: We performed a prospective single-center multi-step interventional study in patients with septic shock to evaluate the effect of implementation of PLR testing on the fluid balance (FB) 48 hours after ICU admission. All patients were equipped with a PiCCO® device for pulse contour analysis to guide fluid administration. An increase in stroke volume (SV) 10% was considered a positive test result. ≥ Results: Before introduction of PLR testing, 21 patients were prospectively included in period 1 with a median FB of 4.8 [3.3–7.8]L. After an extensive training program, PLR testing was introduced and 20 patients were included in period 2. Median FB was 4.4 [3.3–7.5]L and did not differ from period 1 (p 0.72).

The clinical context and physical examination are of great value, but in complex situa- tions as in cardiac care units, it is mandatory the use of advanced hemodynamic monitorization devices, both to determine the main mechanism of shock, as to decide management and guide response to treatment, these devices include pulmonary flotation catheter as the gold standard, as well as more recent techniques including echocardiography and pulmonary ultra- sound, among others.

  • Comparison of the Accuracy of Monitoring Devices in Prediction of Fluid Responsiveness in Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock
    IRB# 15-21 COMPARISON OF THE ACCURACY OF MONITORING DEVICES IN PREDICTION OF FLUID RESPONSIVENESS IN SEVERE SEPSIS AND SEPTIC SHOCK PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR: JEFFREY C. FRIED, MD DATE OF PROTOCOL: 12/29/2016 VERSION 3 BACKGROUND One of the most challenging problems in critical care is determination of whether patients have adequate intravascular volume, and whether they would benefit from additional intravenous fluids. Giving too much fluid to patients with adequate intravascular volume could lead to fluid overload, congestive heart failure and subsequent respiratory failure. Not giving enough fluid to 1 IRB# 15-21 patients, risks leaving them under-resuscitated and worsening their shock state, leading to organ failures, such as kidney failure. Clinically, it is very difficult to determine this “intravascular volume status”, and predict which patients would benefit from more fluid. One of the ways we currently determine this, is to measure cardiac output and one of its main components, stroke volume (how much blood is pumped by the heart each beat) and see whether these increase in response to a passive leg raise (PLR) maneuver1. The maneuver is simple, quick, with essentially no risk. The maneuver involves measuring baseline cardiac output and stroke volume with the patient’s head up at 45 degrees and legs flat for 3 minutes. Subsequently, the head is placed flat and the legs are raised to 45 degrees for 3 minutes. If the cardiac output and stroke volume increase in response to this maneuver, there is a high probability that the patient will have a good response to giving intravenous fluid. Currently there are multiple FDA approved devices which can be used to measure cardiac output and stroke volume, ranging from very invasive (pulmonary artery catheter), to minimally invasive (requiring arterial catheter +/- central venous catheter- Flotrac, PICCO)3,4 to a newer, completely non- invasive device, called the NICOM (Cheetah).

Emergency chest decompression is a treatment of choice in such a situation. Herein, we report a case of an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest due to tension pneumoperitoneum caused by esophagogas- tric perforation. A 40-year-old man with a history of duodenal ulcer and pyloric stenosis complained of sudden- onset abdominal pain and developed cardiac arrest during transportation to our hospital. He had jugular venous distention ; subcutaneous emphysema in the upper body trunk, arms, and neck ; and a markedly distended abdomen. Immediate needle-chest decompression was not effective, but after volume resuscitation, adrenaline administration, and abdominal decompression by nasogastric tube, spontaneous circulation was resumed. Radiological findings revealed tension pneumoperitoneum due to esophagogastric perforation. Emergency laparotomy was performed, and the perforation of the esophagogastric junction was detected. The patient was discharged from the hospital without any disability. Notably, in the treatment of a patient with cardiac arrest having subcutaneous emphysema, the cause of obstructive shock could exist not only in the chest, but also in the abdomen.

Pulse ÷ Systolic 4 9/3/2020 What is Shock? Shock is a progressive state of cellular hypoperfusion in which insufficient oxygen is available to meet tissue demands It is key to understand that when shock occurs, the body is in distress. The shock response is mounted by the body to attempt to maintain systolic blood pressure and brain perfusion during times of physiologic distress. This shock response can accompany a broad spectrum of clinical conditions that stress the body, ranging from heart attacks, to major infections, to allergic reactions. 5 9/3/2020 Causes of Shock Shock may be caused when oxygen intake, absorption, or delivery fails, or when the cells are unable to take up and use the delivered oxygen to generate sufficient energy to carry out cellular functions. 6 9/3/2020 Causes of Shock Hypovolemic Shock Distributive Shock Inadequate circulating fluid leads A precipitous increase in vascular to a diminished cardiac output, capacity as blood vessels dilate and which results in an inadequate the capillaries leak fluid, translates into delivery of oxygen to the too little peripheral vascular resistance tissues and cells and a decrease in preload, which in turn reduces cardiac output 7 9/3/2020 Causes of Shock Cardiogenic Shock Obstructive Shock The heart is unable to circulate Obstruction to the forward flow of sufficient blood to meet the blood exists in the great vessels metabolic needs of the body.
